"Lucas?! Lucas Ferphi?" Well this was a surprise.

"Well if it isn't Jessett." He said smiling. He gave me an awkwardly long hug. "You grew up look at you."

"Thank you thank you. What are you doing here?" I asked him as I held onto Harry.

"My dad is running the premier." He said with his hands up.

"Shut up!" I smacked him. "That's too cool!"

"What about you?" He asked crossing his arms.

I looked up at Harry and smiled. "I am here with my boyfriend. Luke this is Harry." I said smiling.

"What's up mate?" Harry held out his hand and Luke shook it.

"Hey how are you? So you and Jessett huh?" Luke stared at the both of us.

"Yeah. Me and Jessy." Harry said tightening his grip.

"That's cool. Jessett and I used to date." Lucas said as of he had bragging rights.

"We were 16 and in love." I said putting air quotes on the in love part.

"It was going well-"

"Until you cheated on me you dog!" I said playfully.

"Mistake number one." Luke said.

"We're gonna take our seats but it was good seeing you." I said.

"Yeah you too." And with that he walked away.

Harry and I sat down comfortably at our large table. I had heard Louis say Eleanor would show up but I hadn't seen her yet. I was hoping to meet her. I looked over at Harry and he was staring at the table as if he was pondering something. I quickly laid my hand on his forearm. "Is everything okay?" I asked with a touch of worry in my voice.

He laid his hand on mine and gave me a small smile. "Yeah everything's fine love."

I looked at him disbelievingly. "You're lying."

He looked at me and was about to say something when music started to blare.

I looked around to see where the music was coming from. "What kind of premier is this?"

"A new group just came out and they're doing their first appearance in front of all of us." Liam said pointing at the stage.

I looked and saw a group of 3 guys and 1 girl. "Oh." I said and looked back at Harry. I lightly pecked his cheek and rested my head into his. "There's nothing to worry about." I said.

He grabbed my hand and kissed it and wrapped his arm around him. I could tell he felt better but I could also tell he was unsure about something.

*******

The night was pretty fun. There was a huge dinner course which made Niall's eyes widen each time food was in front of him. We all drank and had our fun and Louis and I even danced together like idiots in front of everyone. Louis was basically my best friend. He knew how to make me laugh even if he did the smallest thing. He really was fun to be around. Liam had become like an older brother to me. He could always tell when something was on my mind even if I was doing my best at hiding what ever was on my mind. Zayn was one of those guys who I could just sit with in silence and be 100% comfortable with. I found my self falling asleep next to him since we both adored resting our eyes so much. Niall was a best friend. But something more of a best friend. I felt like I could count on him for anything. If I needed anything I knew he would be there. Then there was Harry. Harry. The boy who was stealing my heart slowly. I never thought I would be in this position in my life where I felt as if the relationship I had was pure perfection. It was as if Harry and I were made for eachother.

It was getting late. It was about 1 am and people were still crowding around the stage and cheering on the performers. They were pretty good. I convinced myself I would get their album soon.

Harry stood up and asked me to dance. I accepted of course. It was nice to dance with Harry. Felt like a prom do over almost. I had a beautiful dress and I was all princessed up and I had the perfect date too. Harry Styles from One Direction.

"This is nice." I said as I was hugging him during our dance.

"Hey Jess? What's up with you and that Lucas kid?" He asked. His voice was shaken and unsure. Almost as if he didn't want to ask the question.

I looked up at him questioning to why he would even have to ask. "We dated a long time ago. We used to be best friends basically." I started. "We grew up next to each other and it was almost as if we started dating because we had to see if there was something more than friendship to us. Kind of like it was a must happen, ya know?"

He shook his head slowly.

"Well we dated for a little while and it went pretty well but that certain spark was never there. People would always say how cute of a couple we were because we were so alike but that never clicked..for either of us." I cleared my throat and continued. "Then one day I came to give him a surprise visit and I walked into his house not taking a second guess at doing so because that's how it had always been with us. Just walk in if the doors open. I saw him on the couch with another girl. Beccy Sommers. After that it was as if I knew it wasn't meant to be."

"We you hurt?" He asked.

"To be honest, yes. But it was strange. I was only hurt because it felt like a best friend back stabbing me. But over all I felt happy to have it end. I just never had the guts to do it myself." I looked at him and rose an eyebrow. "You're not worried about Luke are you?"

"No."

"Liar." I said smirking. "It's cute when you're jealous." I said smiling at him. "But trust me. As long as you keep me this happy you won't have to worry about anything. And I would never hurt you in the sort of way. I'm just not that type of person."

He gave me a small peck on the lips which made my smile grow. I nestled my head into his neck and enjoyed the moment we had together.

Harry and I danced for a little longer but of course Louis had to step in and steal Harry away from me. I felt a little light headed from all the dancing anyway and I decided to get some fresh air. I told Liam to let Harry know if he asked.

I walked outside and I was glad to see that the paparazzi were nowhere to be found. I leaned up against the cold brick building and caught my breath. It must have been the dress. I had eaten a lot and it felt almost as if the dress would rip because of the amount of food I had laying in my stomach. I fiddled with the dress to make myself more comfortable but to my dismay it didn't work. I shrugged and quit.

"Well Jessett Pampa." I heard a voice say. I turned around to see Lucas holding a bottle of something.

"Luke." I said somewhat startled. "You scared me."

"You shouldn't be alone out here anyway." He slurred.

"Are you drunk?" I asked.

"Maybe a little." He smiled.

I giggled. "Remember when we went through my moms liquor cabinet? We were what 15? We got so drunk that night."

He laughed. It was a very loud and obnoxious laugh. "I remember."

"I think that was the day you told me you had a crush on me." I said poking him playfully.

"Oh God." He said face palming. He chucked the rest of the bottle quickly. "I don't remember why I cheated on you." He said seriously.

"Shit happens." I said shrugging it off.

"Did I ever say I was sorry?"

"No I don't think you did."

"Well I am very sorry I hurt your feelings." He smiled.

"Apology accepted."

He toppled a little bit as he tried to get closer to me.

"Maybe you should go back inside you're sort of drunk."

"I need to tell you something." He grabbed a strand of my hair and twirled it.
